Leopard

Hey guys!

Today I have another skittlette to share with you!
This one is inspired by the lovely Milena of Nail That Design.

For the manicure I started off with a nude base of OPI Don't Bossa Nova Me Around on my pointer and middle finger and a red base of Barry M Blood Orange on my pinky, ring finger, and thumb. Afterwards I followed my own tutorial using the brown polish OPI Ice-Bergers & Fries and black acrylic paint to make the leopard print on my pointer and middle finger. To finish off the skittlette I applied a stud to my ring finger.

I do love leopard print!

Butterflies

Hey guys!

Today I have a simple skittlette to share with you featuring butterflies!

For the manicure I started off with a white base of CND Cream Puff on all my nails. Afterwards I stamped the butterflies on my middle and ring finger using the plate BP74 and Mundo de Uñas Black stamping polish. Then I colored in the butterflies using the three OPI Color Paints: Pen & Pink, Chromatic Orange, and Primarily Yellow. To finish everything off I added Essie Shine of the times to my pinky for a subtle flakie look.

I think this turned out so cute!

ÜNT Ready for Takeoff (Peel Off base coat)

Hey guys!

Today I have a review of ÜNT Ready for Takeoff (Peel Off base coat) to share with you.
Removing glitter polish is an eternal struggle, but this base coat makes the removal so much easier!

I decided to test it with this glitter mani (I used Essie Butler Please and Essie Set in Stones).

Now for the review: the dry time is the only downside to this miracle product - it takes 4 to 5 minutes to dry, but I recommend you wait a few more minutes before applying the polish. Other than that it is an amazing peel off base coat - it is easy to apply and even easier to remove (check out the weirdly satisfying peelies below).

I am so ecstatic over this base coat - it works amazingly!

Depend The Great Desert

Hey guys!

Today I have a swatch and review of the up-coming Depend collection The Great Desert*.
The Great Desert is a collection consisting of six polishes with a satin to matte finish. I recommend you using a ridge filling base coat underneath and no top coat on top.

First off I have No. 4092 Hot Desert.
Hot Desert is a light nude with a satin finish. The formula is great and it is easy to work with. The opacity is good as well and it opaque in three thin coats.
This shade is definitely one of my favorites in the collection - it is so sweet and delicate.

Next up is No. 4091 Camel Caravan. 

Camel Caravan is a nude with a satin finish. The formula on this one is great and it is opaque in two thin and buttery coats. 

This shade is perfect for my skintone - now I finally have the perfect shade for manniquin hands.

Next is No. 4095 Dust Storm.

Dust Storm is taupe/brown with a matte finish and a blurple (blue/purple) shimmer. The formula is great (as the others) and it is easy to apply. The opacity is amazing and it only needs one coat!

Next is No. 4094 Shade Seeker.

Shade Seeker is a dark taupe/brown with a matte finish and a aqua blue shimmer. The formula on this one is great as well and it is opaque in one thin and easy coat! 

This shade is so beautiful!

Next I have No. 4093 Sahara Queen to share with you. 

Sahara Queen is a pink with a satin finish and a light teal shimmer. The formula and opacity on this one was good - it was opaque in three thin coats. 

Last (but not least) is No. 4089 Cool Oasis. 

Cool Oasis is a light blue with a satin finish. The formula on this one was great - it applies to the nails like butter. The opacity is good as well and it is opaque in two easy coats.

This is another favorite of mine!

All in all I love this collection - all the shades are so beautiful!

Depend Hand Spa 3-Step Treatment Kit

Hey guys!

Today I have a review of the Depend Hand Spa 3-Step Treatment Kit* to share with you, which is a luxurious spa treatment in three steps that cleans, moisturizes and protects the hands.

The first step is the handpeeling.
Except for the long dry-time of five minutes and the strong odor I like this product - it does what it promises and it is easy to use.

The second step is the moisturizing gel.
After the hand peeling this moisturizing gel is perfect - it cools and moisturizes the hands.

The third and last step is the silk lotion.
This creme has a speciel odor as well, but it is great on the hands (and the odor goes away once dry).

All in all I like this treatment kit - you get a lot for your money (it is really cheap), it is easy to use and it does everything it promises!
What do you guys think about this set? Would you consider trying it?

Floral

Hey guys!

Today I have some abstract floral nail art to share with you!

For the manicure I started off with a green base of Essie First Timer on my pinky, a white base of CND Cream Puff on my middle and ring finger, and a red base of Essie Color Binge on my pointer and thumb. Afterwards I used the brushes in the polishes Essie First Timer and Essie Color Binge to make some abstract flowers on my middle and ring finger. To finish everything off I added some black dots on the flowers using a small dotting tool and the black polish Essie Licorice.

Close-up!

And they even matched my toe nails!

I am loving this easy and cute design.

Marble Stone

Hey guys!

Today I have a marble stone skittlette to share with you.

For the manicure I started off with a white base of CND Cream Puff on my middle finger, ring finger, and pinky. Afterwards I followed this tutorial by the Nailasaurus using the grey Essie Cocktail Bling, the black Essie Licorice and a clear jelly stamper. Then I applied piCture pOlish Chillax to my pointer and thumb. I finished off by removing part of the stone marble design on my pinky and placing a silver triangle stud on top of it.

My nails and my outfit!

I love this technique - I have never been able to make it look this much like stone marble until now!
